Unemployable tech burnout whomst likes working on distributed systems, games, music, and other weird art things. You can guess my age by the banner picture.

This is my 'work' account where I post mostly about my progress, frustrations, and occasional achievements in personal projects.
I *work* as an engineer at an IT security company, but I rarely post about it here.

Allegedly I'm a writer (q4 2026 👀), you should bully me to write more.

I like tinkering on some weird tech things including an HDL for factorio circuits and my own text editor (i know, i know). You'll find them on my codeberg~

Huge SciFi fan 🖖

Just a cold robot on the internet hacking, shitposting, helping and doing things

I joke. A lot.
I post about planes and ATC stuff. A lot.

Pretty unfiltered, thoughts/opinions my own not my employers. Probably overanalyzing things... Or am I? What does that really mean? Maybe if I calculate the optimal amount of analysis...
